CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon avoided suspension Monday when NASCAR instead fined him $100,000 and docked him 25 points for intentionally wrecking Clint Bowyer at Phoenix International Raceway.
Gordon was also placed on probation through Dec. 31. But he'll be allowed to close out the season Sunday at Homestead-Miami Speedway despite his actions in Sunday's race, which triggered a fight in the garage area between the two crews.

Pretty much a slap on the wrist. I don't really understand why the probation ends on December 31st when the season is over after next weekend. Probation lengths should be # of races instead of days imo.

He intentionally took out several cars and even took one out of (mathematical) championship contention. If this was Kyle most fans would be calling for his head.

A few years ago, Kurt Busch intentionally wrecked Jeff Gordon during the Martinsville race in the chase when Gordon was something like 20 points behind the leader. And that was with a few races to go. Nobody even mentioned it after the race.

Congrats to Brad and his team. They deserved it. I hate that circumstances fell apart for the 48 in the last two weeks. Seems like 2010 when Denny lost. Congrats NYM for the 24's win. Maybe he'll get to 100.
